Red deer Cervus elaphus blink more in larger groups [PDF]
Most animals need to spend time being vigilant for predators, at the expense of other activities such as foraging. Group‐living animals can benefit from the shared vigilance effort of other group members, with individuals reducing personal vigilance ...

A polygenic basis for birth weight in a wild population of red deer (Cervus elaphus) [PDF]
The genetic architecture of traits under selection has important consequences for the response to selection and potentially for population viability. Early QTL mapping studies in wild populations have reported loci with large effect on trait variation ...

Anthrax in Red Deer (Cervus elaphus), Italy
To the Editor: Anthrax is hypoendemic in Italy; a few outbreaks occurred yearly involving unvaccinated herbivores on pastures in central and southern regions and the major islands. Multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) with 8 variable-number tandem repeats (VNTRs) of Italian isolates of Bacillus anthracis has identified 9 ...

The biomolecular characterization of a finger ring contextually dated to the emergence of the Early Neolithic from Syltholm, Denmark [PDF]
We present the analysis of an osseous finger ring from a predominantly early Neolithic context in Denmark. To characterize the artefact and identify the raw material used for its manufacture, we performed micro-computed tomography scanning ...

Approach of molecular technique to identify Artiodactyls based on mitochondrial D-loop polymorphism [PDF]
In recent year species of Artiodactyla have suffered rather decrease in populations as result of poaching. In many cases detecting the organs and tissues obtained from arrested poachers is not possible visually therefore it makes difficult to affirm the ...

Malignant Melanoma in a Captive Red Deer (Cervus elaphus elaphus) [PDF]
We report a case of malignant melanoma in a captive red deer (Cervus elaphus elaphus). The primary lesion was on the plantar aspect of the right pastern and infiltrated the surrounding skin, but not underlying tendons or bone. Diffuse metastasis to the regional lymph nodes had occurred.

Genome-wide study on genetic diversity and phylogeny of five species in the genus Cervus
Background Previous investigations of phylogeny in Cervus recovered many clades without whole genomic support. Methods In this study, the genetic diversity and phylogeny of 5 species (21 subspecies/populations from C. unicolor, C. albirostris, C. nippon,
